Chapter 29 - Sauron anxiety

Early in the next morning Gray waked up and went out of his room. Gray felt a very Great feeling today. His body is so comfortable. He never felt such a refreshing feeling like today.

This also shows him how frugal and weak the human body is. While thinking of this he met an elf in the way he's walking.

"Mr. Gray, the king invites you" The elf was very respectful for Gray. From Gray, he felt the same feeling when he stands in front of his king.

"Lead the way" Gray looked at him and said.

Soon they reached the place where Thranduil is. Thranduil was sitting in front of a table full of food waiting for Gray.

Gray saw this and felt a little hungry, so he sits down and started to eat. Speaking of elves food, they are vegetarian. So all Gray could found was Fruit and green. But Gray himself doesn't care about what he eats, as long as it can fill his stomach that's enough.

In the three years of the apocalypse, he ate even bugs. so he's not picky about what he eats, besides everything on the table looks healthy and tasty for him.

After eating and some chat with Thranduil, Gray asked him to bring his weapons back. And naturally, Thranduil won't refuse.

Soon all his stuff brought back to him. And Thranduil also gave him a new armor suit.

Looking at this armor set. Silver with black patterns all over it, it looks so beautiful and elegant. Gray looked at this armor and somehow admired the elf's craft.

Gray said to Thranduil that he's leaving and left. After getting back to his room, Gray put the new armor and the swords to his wrist.

After seeing everything was ready. Gray used the ring ability and became invisible. Looking at the world changed around him. Gray floated slowly and went out of the room.

Soon he reached the prison location. Looking at the dwarves they were sleeping inside the cell like salted fish. Apparently gave up on forcing their way out.

"TSHINK TSHAK" Suddenly all the cell locks were opened and Gray also appeared in the middle of the prison hall, Floating on low altitude.

"I say, do you want to continue on your journey" Gray looked at them and said with a smile on his face.

"Excuse me, can you tell me who are you?" When Bilbo went out of the cell, he looked at Gray and asked.

The dwarves around also looked at Gray with doubt.

Seeing them not even recognize him. Gray suddenly wanted to hit them.....

"Mehh,.... I'm Gray" Even though Gray was angry, but this time, he really can't blame them, he knows how much his look changed after the transformation.

"Gray? Are you really Gray?!" This time Thorin asked.

"Do you know anyone else can float on the air other than me?" Those idiots should already recognize me since I'm floating in the air.

"Well, Let not talk about this now, we have to leave" Gray didn't wait for him to answer and said.

The dwarves were still suspicious about Gray, But they also have to leave fast. Or they will be late. To enter the secret mountain passage they have to be there in a specific time, and they don't have much time left.

Under Gray leading the went to the place where Bilbo led them on the original, Along the way they saw many elves were knocked down. apparently Gray cleaned the road.

Soon Gray saw the Barrels they rode to run away on the original. Looking at those Barrels Gray had a weird smile on his face.

Then he said for the dwarves; "Enter the Barrels and hide"

The dwarves directly entered the Barrels, along the way here they asked many questions about Gray. So they already conformed Gray identity. Even though the fact Gray arent human but elf that they hate annoyed them. But after all, Gray was them from the beginning, and he saved their lives many times before. So they didn't say much about this. At least not now.

After they have entered the barrels Gray dumped them down to the water and followed them.

Looking at the dwarves riding the barrels. Gray used his ability and controlled the metal parts of the barrels and moved them faster.

The elves notice that the dwarves are running away, and wanted to stop them.

"My king the dwarves are running away" Inside the king's hall, Thranduil was sitting on his throne listening to the guard's report.

"Try to stop them, if they left your range, don't care about them and let them leave." Thranduil already knows what will happen so he didn't care much and said.

..

Gray and the dwarves already reached the gate that will take them away. The elves tried to stop them and close the gate, but will this stop Gray?. He raised his hand and wanted to control the gate.

"WISHH" Suddenly an arrow was shot at him.

Gray directly dodged the arrow and catch it with his hand. Looking at the arrow on his hand, it was a black dirty arrow, not like elves arrow at all.

Looking at the direction that the arrow came from. He saw who shot it.

Orcs many orcs, they were ruching from the forest.

Looking at this, Gray didn't rich to leave, he floated down and stand on the earth, while looking at the orcs with a smile on his face.

He wants to test his power after the transformation and the skills he copied from Thranduil. And those orcs should be the best test object.

Gray pulled his swords and rushed to them. His speed was so fast, the moment he reached the orcs, their heads started to separate from their shoulders, Gray movement was fast and elegant as if he was dancing between them, the swords on his hand was fast and deadly, every time he swings his sword, two or three heads will fly away. None of them orc could handle one swing of Gray's attacks.

Looking at Gray's stunning power, the dwarves were surprised, but they didn't stay still and started to kill with him. Soon Tauriel and Legolas Reached. Thay saw the orcs being killed by Gray's sword without little resistance. They felt familiar with Gray's fighting style. They can see that Gray's skill is very similar to them, but he's much more skilled them, Especially Legolas from Gray movements he can see his father shadow.

Well, it's his father's skills so naturally, Gray will give him such a feeling. Even though Gray copied Thranduil skills, but he doesn't have memories of how to use these skills, and that's why Gray didn't use his metal control ability, to kill the orc around, he wants to create an experience by using normal fight.

Almost all the orc around where killed by Gray, some of them ran away in the process, but he didn't follow, but directly took the dwarves and left the place.

Legolas wanted to chase them, but after some thought, he captured one of the running orcs and took him back to questioning. After all, it's not normal for the orcs to invade their territory like this, he wants to know why, and what reason let them follow Gray and the dwarves.

...

...

After getting back to the castle, he took the orc he caught to the king's hall.

"Say why do you follow the dwarves" Legolas was holding the orc they fought, and a dagger under his nack. But the orc didn't want to say.

"The dwarves... Has to die... That man...the one... wants him back" That orc way of speaking was somehow distorted and not clear.

"That man, the one?" Legolas didn't understand what he means.

"The one, Sent all his... army to.. hunt that white-haired man... The dwarves... and all you know will be destroyed..." Orc said this, and a smile appeared on his face.

Orc is creatures who love the destruction, what they desire is death and more death.

When Tauriel heard that their goal is actually Gray, she suddenly got angry and said; "Why are you following Gray, Who is the one on your word, answer his question, filth"

"Tell us what you know, and I promise you, I'll let go of your head" at this time Thranduil said to the orc. He wanted to know whos the one on his words at the same time, he wants to know what they want from Gray.

The orc was silent for a moment then said; "the one is... whos my master Serve...., the Dark One"

The moment Thranduil heard the orc's words, he waved his hand and cut the orc head with his sword.

Legolas wanted to ask why his father did that, but Thranduil first said; "Close the forset, don't let anyone enter or leave, let all the guards be careful from everything".

When Thranduil heard the word of the orc a very bad feeling appeared on his heart. He only wishes, that the one on his mouth not being the one he knows. Even though Thranduil didn't appear much on the history of this world, but this doesn't mean he knows nothing.

.....

.....

Dol Guldur.

It this moment Dol Guldur is full of orc, many orcs that cant counted by numbers, it this moment all those orcs was ready to follow their leader Azog to start the war.

"Master there is news about the dwarves" While Azog was preparing for the war of the mountain suddenly an orc came to his side and said.

"What news!" Azog heard that there is a news about the dwarves, became excited.

The orc told him everything happened when they met Gray and the dwarves.

"White-haired elf? Fly on the air? Strong sword skills, cutting heads?" When he heard about Gray's powers, he thought of something.

"Is he the person that the master wanted me to bring back" The more he thought about it the more he thinks that right.

"AZOG..." Suddenly a monsters flame appeared again on the castle, and Sauron sound appeared again.

"Master" All the orc around bowed their heads down, when Sauron appeared.

"I heard that the one I want you to bring back is strong..." Sauron said here and froze for a second, then continued; "I will send my servants to help you, bring me that elf, as fast as you can..."

While speaking Souren flame started to get weaker and weaker and then disappeared.

In those days Sauron could feel that his spirit started to get weaker and weaker. And such a thing normally shouldn't happen. So he came into a calculation. His ring may be damaged or someone was trying to destroy it. So he was anxious to get the ring back, he even sent the Nazgul that he didn't want to use right now. To help Azog in this war.

What Sauron didn't know that his ring wasn't damaged nor about to be destroyed. But being transformed into a new ring. If it wasn't that his spirit where deeply rooted inside the ring, the one ring would have become anew ring by now.
